Building of rules base for fuzzy-logic control of the ECDM process

In ECDM process, generally a cumulative effect of discharges striking the workpiece surface and electrochemical dissolution process are observed. This process is described mainly by the current–voltage dependences. This paper presents, the simplified model for estimation current of electrochemical dissolution and electrodischarge machining in the ECDM process. Basing on this model there is also presented an attempt of adapting fuzzy-logic controller for ECDM process. Paper contains also simplified model of the control system used for simulations.
